Speaking of weird games - Amnesia: The Dark Descent and the Penumbra series are 75% off at GamersGate this week.

I never got very far in Pathologic either. However The Void is a wonderful game and one of the most "beautiful" games i've ever played. to me that game is a flawed masterpiece if only flawed because it can be crushingly unforgiving at points, though there is a mod/patch i believe which fixes it.

Ah, alright then, that is good to know. I'll at least try Avernum 4 before deciding if I feel that the first 3 are worth buying, and not worry all that much about playing the old games.

Also, I must be crazy, but I actually prefer the way that the old Exile games looks compared to the Avernum games…

Dungeon Siege 3 and its nearly expansion-sized DLC Treasures of the Sun are on sale today, with Dungeon Siege being 75% off, and the expansion 50% off (this is part of the current SquareEnix sale on Gamer's Gate).
I found Dungeon Siege 3 to be pretty good.

Also Sacred & Divine Divinity are about to go on sale on GOG. It looks like Sacred will be 40% off & Divine Divinity will be 60% off.
